Twink doesn't think so, but will Twink++? Can Twink give any meaningful
statements about Twink++, or, for that matter, Anders++, X++, Y++?

Several significantly superrealtime Mminds are a damn dynamic society.
Transcension may occur within very short time periods, possibly less time
than it takes for you to purchase a ticket to LEO. I don't think we will
have a significant number of humans out of the gravity well living
sustainably by 2030/2040. Besides, technosphere may expand hard at the
light cone's limits. Get lost, in space? Might not be a viable
alternative...
